EFC V LFC: Your Guide to Merseyside Derby Day

The reds are preparing to “stay clear, stay fair, stay aggressive” while the blues eye a home win on Merseyside derby day.

For a city united in so many ways, only the Merseyside derby could split us all right down the middle so fiercely. The 233rd (we think, why does no one agree on this?) meeting of Everton and Liverpool takes place at Goodison Park at 4:15pm on Sunday 3rd March 2019, meaning its basically a day long event.

As the reds continue their Premier League title quest, the blues are hoping for a home win after a disappointing start to 2019. The Merseyside Derby is known for getting messy and ranks top of the most red cards shown in the top flight, so while we wait for the inevitable drama to unfold on the pitch, this is where we’ll be on derby day……
